This is a wedding I’ve been looking forward to ever since I did Adam and Torrie’s engagement photography back in May 09. The wedding ceremony was in the Grand Opera House, with reception in the Baby Grand, before everyone crossed Glengall street to the Europa hotel for the wedding after party. Torrie’s Dad had made the 9 awesome wedding cakes!

We shot the wedding photography family photos in Belfast’s Botanic gardens, and had great weather for Feb. I had a great time shooting this unique day – Thanks Torrie and Adam!

My favourites are the wedding photographs in the Grand Opera house.

A great alternative to a studio photography session is to have your family portraits taken on location. I love to get out in the fresh air (or very fresh as it has been this winter!) It’s all very relaxed and great fun. Bring your dog along too. Here are some shots from before Christmas, taken in the grounds of Belfast Castle.
